Welcome!
TC plants can be great and I would buy them if they were correctly labeled. There is nothing worse to me than buying one then 2 years later when it flowers I find out I already have this one and it wasn't the one I wanted! Has happened to me a couple times!!!
How much time, water, fertilizer, mulch, work, and more is going into the plant over that 2 year time frame? Way more than the $10 price difference! And the price difference is usually shipping cost!
A TC is tiny and has a dime sized corm. It weighs maybe an ounce. 5 oz counting wet soil? A good sized pup has a baseball or softball size corm!! It weighs 3-5 lbs! Most I sell or ship cost $10+. With pups you get what you pay for!
The pup will also give you a HUGE head start over the TC plant. Almost a whole season in some areas!!
Just some things to consider and my thoughts!! Good luck!
